Carolyn's Reviews
Emily
Carolyn always goes above and beyond to make sure our kitty and home are taken care of. Whether itβs playing or giving pets, she gives our cat all the love while weβre gone which has always given us peace of mind. She gives great and frequent updates while visiting as well, which are so fun to see while we are away!!
Mary
My boyfriend and I were gone for two weeks and Carolyn did an amazing job taking care of our Millie! Sheβs very transparent and communicative and maintains a schedule for the cats. she sent plenty of photos and videos for each visit as well as a list of everything that was done. Our cat is extremely shy but she warmed up to Carolyn so quickly! we couldnβt be happier!
Robin
I would trust Carolyn with my kids! She was here when she said she would be and the kitties were so well taken of. She communicated with me at every visit, sent photos and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies with her. I wouldnβt hesitate to use her again.
Dimitrios
Carolyn did amazing! she was able to see my boy for a quick stop to feed him and was very helpful the entire time. Thank you again!
Emily
Carolyn is so great! She is communicative, reliable, and takes great care of our kitty. Our cat can be shy with strangers but Carolyn is patient and still spends time giving her company which is exactly what she needs when we are out of town.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee
We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in your sitter before you leave.
Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
